2023 – IMO https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws Thu, 02 Jan 2025 15:40:30 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.1 https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/cropped-android-chrome-512x512-1-32x32.png 2023 – IMO https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws 32 32 The Poseidon Principles: 2023 Annual Disclosure Report https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/the-poseidon-principles-2023-annual-disclosure-report/ https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/the-poseidon-principles-2023-annual-disclosure-report/#respond Thu, 02 Jan 2025 15:40:28 +0000 https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/the-poseidon-principles-2023-annual-disclosure-report/ The Poseidon Principles, embraced by 80% of global ship finance, have aligned with the IMO’s net-zero emissions ambition by 2050, reflecting a commitment to climate action and transparency in maritime lending decisions. Despite industry challenges, such as port congestion and personnel shortages, the principles have shown significant progress in decarbonization efforts, with a +95.4% reporting percentage indicating growing industry recognition of the importance of transparency and collaboration in achieving sustainability goals. The publication of the 2023 Annual Disclosure Report highlights the shipping finance sector’s leadership in fostering a more sustainable future for the maritime industry.

Commercial Readiness of Absolute Zero GHG Technologies https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/commercial-readiness-of-absolute-zero-ghg-technologies/ https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/commercial-readiness-of-absolute-zero-ghg-technologies/#respond Thu, 02 Jan 2025 15:40:28 +0000 https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/commercial-readiness-of-absolute-zero-ghg-technologies/ ZESTAs’ paper discusses findings from the MARIN NL Model for ESSF SAPS, which compares various marine fuels’ greenhouse gas emissions over a 100-year Global Warming Potential (GWP), noting that some fuels produce 0% emissions over this period. Only technologies reaching at least demonstration stage (TRL7 or higher) are considered. Additionally, references are made to Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) and Commercial Readiness Levels (CRLs) following expanded definitions presented to ISWG-GHG 14 by IMO Secretariat, DNV, and Ricardo plc on 22nd March 2023.

Economic value of methanol for shipping under fuelEU maritime and EU ETS https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/economic-value-of-methanol-for-shipping-under-fueleu-maritime-and-eu-ets/ https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/economic-value-of-methanol-for-shipping-under-fueleu-maritime-and-eu-ets/#respond Thu, 02 Jan 2025 10:34:12 +0000 https://futurefuels.wpdev.ws/resources/economic-value-of-methanol-for-shipping-under-fueleu-maritime-and-eu-ets/ To evaluate the economic viability of bio-methanol and e-methanol as sustainable marine fuels within the regulatory frameworks of FuelEU Maritime and the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS). The report provides an analysis of compliance pathways and the economic incentives for adopting these fuels compared to fossil fuels such as VLSFO, emphasizing the penalties for non-compliance. The findings support the potential of these regulations to facilitate a transition to sustainable fuels by creating a stable investment environment for fuel producers and encouraging adoption by shipping operators.
